From The Wiki:
In the laws of war, combatants are considered to be hors de combat (French: [ɔʁ də kɔ̃ba]; lit. ‘out of combat’), and thus protected persons, when they are unable to participate in fighting. Hors de combat personnel may not be intentionally targeted. Examples include persons parachuting from their disabled aircraft, shipwreck survivors, as well as the sick, wounded, detained, or otherwise disabled.
Both of these are “without prejudice”, meaning the gov can refile charges if they get their act together on legally appointing a US attorney with the advice and consent of the Senate.
It’s not completely clear, but these dismissals could moot the other pending motions to dismiss, including the vindictive prosecution claims, even though those could result in “with prejudice” dismissal.
The government can appeal these rulings. They have done so in other invalid US attorney cases.
If they refile on Comey, he will argue that the statute of limitations has run out. The government will argue that they get a 6 month extension under a statute. Judge Currie already stated today that Comey’s position is correct, but I don’t know if that opinion binds whatever future judge gets the case when it’s refiled.
Letitia James still has more time on the statute of limitations, so she’s in a worse position.
It might be hard to actually get these cases refiled. Halligan was appointed using an invalid procedure precisely because there’s no way she could pass Senate confirmation. Every other prosecutor of any competence has preferred to get fired rather than charge these cases. The order today gives the judges the power to appoint an interim US attorney again, and if they do so, that one could stop any prosecution. And finally, the cases would have to pass grand jury scrutiny again. We know the Comey charges barely scraped by on 14 votes the first time.
Don’t do that. You’ll get coffee flavored tea, which is no good at all.
we have officially submitted upstream pull requests to the historical source repositories of Zork I, Zork II, and Zork III
Zork was originally developed for the PDP-10. It was split into titles I, II, and III for the home microcomputer market. I’d love to learn about just how many revision control systems this code has been through.
TAL did a different episode along a similar line where two babies were accidentally switched around in the hospital nursery, so they were raised by the wrong families.
I’d like to conclude with a quote from Woody Guthrie:
There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me. Sign was painted, said, “Private Property” But on the back side, it didn’t say nothing. This land was made for you and me.
The gov is doing this thing with the signs because “trespassing” into the 100 ft.-wide “military base” is a much more serious crime than just crossing the border not at a port of entry.
The civilian chucklefucks they hired to put the signs up apparently failed to notice where they crossed the mouth of the river.
They pick out the small chickens to go to the rotisserie. The chickens for sale raw are substantially heavier on average.
I’m pretty sure on newer 737s the autopilot disconnects when it detects a sufficient physical force on the yoke.
On airplanes that don’t do this, the autopilot servos are clutched so that you can still override them by applying a specified amount of force. There are reinforced points on the bottom of the dash panel that you can use with your foot to get leverage to help with this.
(This also applies as a backup on planes that do disconnect)
Some more practical tips.
Video evidence contradicted this narrative and showed a fully intact sandwich on the ground, still wrapped.
If the sub ain’t split, you must acquit!
Update: court adjourned for today with no verdict. Jury deliberations will resume tomorrow.
The video clearly showed an intact, wrapped sandwich on the ground after the incident. Nothing “exploded.” The cop lied on the stand (surprise, surprise), and he got called out on it by the defense.
Since he’s getting evicted, they should offer him a residence in The Tower. They could set him up with the Duke of Exeter’s daughter.
There’s a lot of complete trash. Multiple reskins of the same puzzle game with randomly generated names. Bare bones minesweeper clone written entirely by AI, and advertised as such. That sort of thing.
And Hawking radiation. Hawking radiation is pretty “dark” for solar-mass scale black holes and up, but it can become relatively very intense for smaller holes.
For the holes we observe astronomically, the things we can see are the accretion disks and the orbits of stars around the black hole.
Of you post a preprint to arxiv, and submit the same paper to a journal, you don’t generally cite the preprint in the journal submission, and it’s not considered plagiarism either.
That’s why they’re called “preprints.”
This seems like a similar situation, except the “preprint” went up on some form of personal blog, and the “journal” was a class submission.
You missed “CM,” which was common in copyright statements in the 20th century.
That sounds like the Gulf stream which is a water current in the Atlantic Ocean. That’s a different “stream” than the jet stream.
